Ok, this weblog, tries to reflect on all the Issues related to anything. Islam, and Muslims. Artists and Entertainment. Singers and songs. All attempts have been made to provide you with the best of knowledge available in the field, but still I do not claim, that all articles will be perfect, since the writer, TAUFIQ(me) is a human writers. In case if you have something important, which I have missed out, please mail it to me. It would also be appreciated, if you can leave your valuable comments, in the guestbook, for our reference. The basic aim of this weblog, is to make aware both the Muslims and Non-Muslims, of Islam, but we also try to answer, what Non-Muslims, pose against us, in their way.

It is not cool to be a homophobe. It is never cool to extend your hate agendas onto others, but since you are doing it in your own space, I respect that.

If you want to be look upon as a hate monger, so be it, It is your choice. But really, what do you gain from it? Respect? Think again. You can think, can you? I am sure you can. I have all the faith in you.

Reply: I appreciated your concerns. This is my own space. But what you were trying to say is, ‘people respect you because of the explosure of your sexuality?’ I don’t understand why any dude would ever want to wake up next to another hairy ass every day of their pathetic lives. And you’re trying to ask me to pay respect on them. Why should I? Think again. You can think, can you? I am sure you can. I have all the faith in you.

Ref 2:

Please have the maturity to think that as there are nasty gays out there, there are gays who lead productive life and pay taxes. Just like anyone else. There are nasty male heterosexuals too, who demean women even on broad daylight on the street, and I wonder why you never even point this out. I really wonder why you fail to see this.

The question now is. Why the failure?

I am not interested in your petty homophobic agendas. Really, your hate is none of my concern here, because I care not to look deep into your psyche. I would rather spend my time exploring into the psyche of positive people with love and compassion in their life. Saying that, I would like to repeat myself here on why you fail to see other more pressing issues like the social inequalities, sexual harassment and what have you irregardless of gender, sexuality of race.

Reply: Why? Because homosexuality is not allowed in Islam. There are various verses in Quran where Allah clearly says about Homosexuality. “We also (sent) Lut: he said to his people: “Do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you? “For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.” – Holy Quran 7:80-81 .

You’re a Muslim. And you read Quran. Or maybe you don’t. Like I care. For your reference and information, the Quran forbids any sexual relationship other than in a marriage between a man and a woman. Many homosexual men and women claim that they are born with their sexual preferences and that they have no choice. Although this point is very much in dispute in the medical world, it has no support in the Quran. Even then, irrespective of the nature of homosexuality, this matter would not affect the laws spelled out clearly in the Quran .

We know that this life is a test. Everyone of us has his/her own test. For example someone may be born blind, but that person is expected to live his/her life according to God’s law. Others are born poor, short, tall, weak, missing fingers, having big nose…etc but all of them are expected to follow God’s law. Some men or women may never marry in their life, or spend part of their life without a spouse. As per the Quran they still have to live a chaste life and avoid any sexual contacts outside a marriage. They have to suppress their sexual feelings to follow God’s law. It is a major test and not an easy one for many. Only those who submit to God will do everything they can to follow His law. They know that their salvation and eternal happiness rests in doing so.

Since God condemns homosexuality, then we have to believe that a man or a woman with homosexual feelings is expected to behave like any other human being and follows God’s laws if he/she truely believes in them. He/she shall resist his/her feelings , maintains abstinence , use all available resources of help including medical, social and behavioral therapies to overcome their behavior and feelings. They should pray to God to help them getting over it and submit to God’s law that sees homosexuality as gross sin. Only those who steadfastly persevere in obeying God’s law will they pass their test and confirm their submission to God.

There are many issues in Islam that are perfectly clear and this is one of them. I do not know what more I can do other than what was previously mentioned. The reason for this is because Allah has set forth examples for us in His Book that will deal with any and every type of situation. The only people who will deny this are those who disbelieve, those who do it for the sake of argument, those who will choose to only follow their own desires, and those who are just plain quarrelsome. “And We have explained in detail in this Qur’an, for (the benefit of) mankind, every kind of example (or situation). But man is ever more quarrelsome than anything.”[Surat Kahf; 18:54] And in the case that my argument was not good enough for you, then I will recommend that you pay a visit to the City where the practice of homosexuality began. Smewhere in Palentine. Check out from the internet.

Ref 3 and 4:

Seriously, you cannot call yourself a writer until you can get rid of your paltry prejudices and start looking into life, objectively.

And really dahhhhling, the world doesn?t revolve around you, so please don?t equate whatever happens in your life as the gospel truth.
